Botox

Laser Resurfacing

Yes, for up to 6 months. It does so by reducing eccrine sweat which promotes bacterial growth (added to by heat and occlusion). It may also reduce odor through suppression of sweat through apocrine glands (attached to hair follicles). This sweat does contain lipids and proteins which themselves may cause odor. Botox doesn't kill any germs...it just reduces the sweat that is their breeding environment.

I am suffering from underarm odor for almost 7 years. It is really embarassing.. I can't smell myself but when I see reactions of people I interact with, it seems that I am stinking worse even I came from bath. I've already tried all topical deos and anti-perspirants even vinegar, baking soda, cornstach, other strong deos but still nothing works. As of now, my underarms perspire much lesser than before but I want the odor to be gone. I am wondering if this botox can really help me. Thank you.

Can botox in the armpit really eliminate odor?

I've learned many sustainable facts in 37 years of practice: one is not to chase one problem by creating another! Botox ptosis will fade within 2 weeks to 2 months. Unfortunate, but just a nuisance. There may be obscure compensatory muscles that one could paralyze to reverse ptosis, but one miss there will cause more ptosis! Leave well enough alone.

Can Botox induced ptosis be fixed w more botox?

Yes! If used properly, like anything else. The only major complications have arisen using <a href="/Botox/reviews">Botox</a> off-label for unapproved uses, especially in high doses in children for neurologic diseases. The warnings are necessary for your own decision making and to discuss with your doctor. There are side effects, but following proper cosmetic use with proper technique and dosing, these should be temporary and reversible.

I was checking out <a href="/reviews/botox">Botox</a> Prescribing information and the first thing I read is a warning that Botox Cosmetics may spread from the area of injection and may cause, among others, difficulties breathing and swallowing that can be life threatening.How can Botox be considered a safe procedure with this kind of warning?! Now I'm definitely scared.

How is Botox Safe if There Are Warnings About Complications?

You are young. Your wrinkles are still minimal and your scars, while somewhat &quot;punched out,&quot; are not too deep. 
1. CO2 Laser is still the gold standard. But for you, a little too aggressive, expensive, and not worth the risk considering newer alternatives. Most downtime. Best results. 
2. Fraxel re:Pair is a CO2 based fractionated resurfacing. Usually, only one session needed. Goes deeper; pinpoint bleeding; more pain and downtime. Very good results.
3. Fraxel re:Store is an Erbium-based laser. Less pain, but three sessions needed, each a month apart. Topical anesthesia only with a cream. Quick recovery, minimal risk, mimimal down time. This is what I recommend for you. Total cost of all 3 sessions is about the same as one of either of the two above.

I really don't know much about the different cosmetic procedures. However, I was told <a href="/reviews/laser-resurfacing">laser resurfacing</a> works great for <a href="/Acne-scars/info">acne scars</a> and <a href="/Wrinkles/info">fine lines</a>. I have attached a photo of my bare face. I want to say thanks for any advice and suggestions ahead of time.

Laser Face Resurfacing - Treating Acne Scars, Fine Lines

Yes. Anybody can do anything they can get their hands on. Then again, I don't pull teeth, and in my opinion, injecting <a href="/Botox/reviews">Botox</a> constitutes the practice of medicine! Why do that when there are many qualified physicians in appropriate subspecialties who can help you? Also, I doubt their malpractice would cover them, and if something went terribly wrong, your damages could exceed their assets.

Can a Dentist Administer Botox?

There is no physiologic reason why this should work, and probably doesn't! <a href="/Accutane/reviews">Accutane</a>--low dose, intermittant, and long term can help reduce sebum (oil). The <a href="/Smoothbeam-laser/reviews">SmoothBeam laser</a> definitely reduces sebaceous gland activity, hence reduced oil and <a href="/Acne/info">acne</a>. <a href="/Fraxel-Laser/restore/reviews">Fraxel</a> <a href="/Laser-resurfacing/reviews">Laser resurfacing</a> can improve <a href="/Scars/info">scars</a>, and may help shrink pore size due to adjacent <a href="/Collagen/info">collagen</a> remodelling.

I've heard that you can get intradermal <a href='/reviews/botox'>Botox</a> specifically to refine the look of oily, open pored, and bad textured skin. Is this true? Or is this a waste of money? Does it work and where on your face can you get this done? What if there is scarring present in or around the pores? Will any doctors know what I'm talking about in the Northeast US if I ask for this treatment?

Botox for Poor Skin Texture from Pores, Oil, and Scars?

A very good chance you will DIE! Seriously. The purity and potency are not controlled. Most likely you will get too little, if any, but as the &quot;doctor&quot; in Florida found out (the one on the respirator), you could get too much.

I have came across a website selling Botox without prescription. Has anyone bought Botox through the site? Is it safe?

Buying Botox Online Without a Prescription?

A staff member&nbsp;with proper training and physician supervision. It is best done under sterile conditions in a physicians office with written policies and procedures in place.

Who is allowed to do <a href='http://www.realself.com/reviews/botox'>Botox injections</a>, injectable fillers and <a href='http://www.realself.com/Chemical-peel/reviews'>chemical peels</a> in Texas? Is it legal for a nurse to do Botox in Texas?

Botox, Filler and Chemical Peel Regulations in Texas?

Allergan is the only legitimate US distributor of <a href="/Botox/reviews">Botox</a>. Ask to see the hologram on the label, and check the expiration date! Beware of sales, parties, and prices too cheap to be true...it is offshore, fake, and dangerous! The reputation of your doctor is vital.

How can I avoid fake <a href='/reviews/botox'>Botox</a>?&nbsp; What does the packaging look like?

What Does Botox Packaging Look Like?

I agree that you should be charged by the UNITS, not the area. Some areas simply require more units, and that is directly proportional to our cost. On the other hand, there is usually remarkable consistency in the number of units needed--usually around 30 per area. We do quote by the area for that reason. It is very consistent for our staff and patients...no ambiguity. As a patient I would always wonder: did I &quot;need&quot; more units because I was dressed well and looked like I could afford it? Of course, if someone truly needed LESS units, I would adjust my fees lower. I NEVER adjust them higher!

I have been given a price of $330 PER injection site. My friend told me she's never heard of being charged by the injection site. She said it is her experience, that MD's charge per syringe of <a href='/reviews/botox'>Botox</a>, NOT by one injection site.

Can Someone Tell Me How the Charges Are Made for Botox?
